PICKED UP ABOUT THE CITY Oharles K. Taylor Will Plead Guilty to the Charge of Forgery. THE RAPIDLY RISING RIVER. Feeding a Wife Poison—A Very Re- pentant Tramp — Police and Court , Local—0dds and Ends—Other Local, Will Plead Guilty. 1t developed yesterday that C. K. Tay- Yor, the ex-clerk of the county board of commssioners, who is charged with forgery, has consented to plead guilty n order to secure a mitigation of punish- ilor's arrest his friends have peen moving heaven ana earth to secure a compromise which would get Taylor out of the scrape. County Attorney Simeral and the county board of commissioners ste dily refused, however, to “let up” on Ta T [hey claimed that it would be putting a premium on dishonesty to release him. Since then Taylor has made up his mind to plead guilty to the charge, with the understanding that the lightest possi- ble sentence of the court be given him. Both County Attorney Simeral and the commissioners — have agreed to mvoke the clemency of Judge Neville in his behalf, provided that he will plead guilty. He will proba- bly be brought before the judge within t twenty-four hours ty Attorney Simeral afternooon: “I am willing to ha Jet off as casily as possible, if he 1 guilty.”’ ear in the penitentiary is the i sentence he could receive. the case came to trial 1t would probably cost the county a good deal, though the proof is g0 overwhelmingly against Taylor that he would certainly be convicted. I have in that safe there $500 worth of warrants, each one of which would send Taylor to the penitentiary for from one to twenty years,” ¥ ; County Commissioner Timme said terduy afternoon that he would be wi ing to go before Judge Neville and ask that the sentence of Taylor be made as light as possible. THE RIVER'S CHANGES. 1ce and Rising Muddy Water Moving the Channel—Precautions Being Taken. Yesterday the river wus nine feet two inches, having fallen since the day be- fore. Yesterday, aboutnoon, 1t was eleven foot ten inches, having raised two feot eight inches. 1t is very turbid and cov- ered with floating fragments of ice. The indications are that a gorge has been created in the river between Omaha and Bismarck which lowered the river’s sur- face here and at all points below the gorge. This evidently has broken and 1s flowing down, and thus raising the river., Lumbermen and others having mterests along the banks are actively en- aged in making arrangement to secure their property against any loss which the water may threaten. Near Florence lake the action of the river has invited the most earnest atten- tion from the county commissioners, who paid it n visit vesterday. The river is eating away the land which divides it from the lake. The commissioners claim that the height of the bank offers no se- curity, on account of its sandy composi- tion,” They preaict that the river will work its way through the east half sec- tion 85 and run into the river to the south, The land east of section 85 will thus be cut off, and the river would run into Florence lake and acioss nto Cut Off lake, thence into the present channel. HE WDiJLD REFORM. ‘William Tracy Tells ot a Brief Ex- perience as a Crook. “I'm goin’ to reform, pardner, and quit this yer life!” This pointed announcement was made yesterday morning by William Tracy, a vagrant who was arrested Thursday by the police. Before the prisoncrs were ar- raigned in police court a reporter had a few moment’s calk with him and learned from him hissomewhat remarkable story. ‘Tracy was up to six months ago a cook employed at the Silver Moon restaurant in St Louis. A waiter in that somewhat noted cafe, named Phil Morris, wasim- bued with ideas of a Dick Turpin life in the wild west, gained from reading yel- low colored novels. Tracy caught the fever, and throwing up his position, de- termined to enter upon the career of a robber and highwayman, with his friend Morris. Their adventures, after leaving St. Louis, would munke a volume of very in- Mrcndng reading. Of course an account of them is impossible here. The two young men—neither was over twenty-two years of age—struck out for Chicago. Here they were detected in a bungling piece of robbery and were sent up to the “‘Bridewell” for twenty days each. When that sentence was scrved out they started from that city with the intention of comln% to Omaha, They beat their way on a freight train to Bur- lhuilom [a,, where they remained tor sev- eral days, until the police hecame sus- picious ‘and drove them out. It was while there, Tracy says, that they accom- Elluhcfl their first successful piece of work. 'hey “held up’’ a man on the outskirts of the town one nifih!. and compelling him to throw up his hands at the point of the revolver, robbed him of a gold watch and chain and about sixty-five dollars in money. A day or two later the adventure took a turn which very much disgusted Tracy. They struck the Burlington road and started in the direction of Umaha, At Creston they got off to prospect and sce if thereany chances for ‘‘fine work" there. That mght thc?' sleptin a sec- ond-class hotel, and when Tracy awoke the next morning, 1t was with a feeling of stupor, as though he had been chlori- formed. He found that his partner in inmquity, Morris, was miuinf. and with nim the gold watch and chain and about '.'noén" cash—the result of tke Burlington **job.’ mr made his way to Omaha as best he could, and has since tried to get honest work here. He has not been successful, and the police have looked upon him as a vagrant. He was released yesterday by Judge Stenberg and started out again to look for work. s he is heartily sick of the life he entered upon after he left St. Louis and proposes to reform. He announces, however, that if he ever meets Morris he will not hesitate to wreak vengeange upon hiny in the most summary fashion. w1 ESL AR TEACRER'S ASOUIATION. They Meet in Lincoln to Consider Va- rious lmportant Subjects, ‘The State Teachers' Association will hold their twenty-first annual meeting at Lincoln, March 20, 30 and 81.

T'he Chinese brethren of San Goon, the South Tenth strect notion merchant, are perseeuting him unmercifully. They do it for no other apparent reason than that he is somewhat sharper and shrewder than the common runof Mongolians, and has attained a measure of prosperity which few of these saflron-hued gentle- men enjoy. Furthermore, ever since he married a white wife they have been in- ordinately jealous of him. For it is not every ‘Chinee boy” that can draw such a prize in the matrimonial lottery. The latest story started by these fel- lows is that San Goon is in the hubit of feeding his wife poisoned cake. They sy that San is so jealous of her that he does not want her to leave his sight, and that to prevent her from lea mi the house he gives her cake which, being poisoncd, makes her sick. They claim to have proof positive tfiat he pur- chases arugs from an _Indian doctor for the express purpose of mixing them with the vhich he blandly offers his spouse an Goon denounces this story as false, while his persecutors declare with equal vehemence that every word of itis trne.

The contract for this sti ure will be let before the 20th of April, and work will be commenced before the first of May. This is an enterprise of the greatest moment to both cities and the sooner the work is commenced the better. Bear in Mind That there are lots in South Omaha, pur- chased within three years, for less than five hundred, that are now worth over ten thousand dollars. There will be more packing houses, factories and rail- roads there before 1888. ‘These mean in- creased population, and increase of pop- ulation weans increase of value to real estate. There are plenty of good lots still feft in_the original plat of South Omaha. Why go out into additions a mile away from the center when you can still buy in the old plat at reasonable prices?

William Butler, the young man who left the Buckingham Thursday aftercoon ‘and went down to the river to commit suicide, was stiil in the land of the living yesterday. He had altogether changed his ideas about the propriety of suicide. “Why didn’t you jump 1n the river be- fore the policeman got hold of you?" asked one of the Iadies of the Bucking- ingham of Butler. The fellow replied promptly: “‘The water was too cold. I'd wait till July.” Invest in Lincoln.

Omaha wheelmen are figuring on char- tering a special car to convey them to Minneapolis to witness the ix days’ bi- eycle race which is soon to occur i that city. 1tis probable that quite a number of local riders will attend the event, par- ticularly if one of the Omaha profes- sionals participate therein. Omaha will also be r.»prcscnw\l.iu: St. Louis in May. Note 0 “If 1 could find the man who put my picture in the Police Gazette, represent- ing me standing behind the bar with the urn contaimng Kuehl's ashes in front of me, 1 should most certainly shoot him on aight,” remarked Ed Wiitig, the other day. “What I object to most is being represented as bald headed. See my hair? Itsall there and just as thick as when I was twenty inger.,” *The fact is,” he ad¢ Kuehl never made any request that his ashes should be placed on m) r. If he had, 1 would have most ccl‘l:llnly*curricd it out.” ¥ he hoys™ toll ' "good story on old Uncle John Stanton, the venerable sport, who is now p ing the winter at the poor farm. Several years ago Uncle John had & room on North Thirteenth stroet, He was delinquent with his rent, and his landlord was continually threat- ening to put him out. *Uncle John" ana finally struck a scheme for re ning the room, which worked tu pertection. He determined to ‘* hoo-doo " it He told ghastly ~ stories of the nightly visitors—ghosts, hobgob- lins, spooks—that were in the habit of invading the room, and how every night, strange, unearthly noises were to be heard in the apartment from dusk until dawn. In fact, he succeeded in creating » general impression that the room was haunted. It became unrentable, and Uncle John Stanton was allowed to re- main in it until he was ready to give it up. **u Surveying pariies are now using iron stakes with tin tabs to mark their metes and bounds, instead of the old wooden pegs and corner-stones. The conse- quence is that the land around this city that has been divided ginto lots resem- bles immense diamond fields these fine mornings when the sun gets if on the tin. The effect to the uninitiated is startling at first. Even horses and cows are much disturbed about the presence of these glittering ‘“‘strangers’ on the vrairie slopi d pastures, and sage old crows have b n to make a dive for the tin tabs like gan on the rippling wate sh for a “spoon’’ Feast of the Annunciation.
